Mob Attack Female Police Officer Accused of Shooting Protesters in Burundi [Photos]


A Burundian female police officer was stoned, beaten and dragged on the floor by a mob of protsters after she was accused of shooting a protester in the Buterere neighborhood of Bujumbura, Burundi on May 12th, during a protest march. 

Burundi has been engulfed in series of fierce protests and fighting since the country's president, Pierre Nkurunziza declared his interest to run for a 3rd term in office, a stand the citizens are strongly against.

After much beating, the female officer was rescued by other police officers. More pictures after the cut.....
